    FAIR ENOUGH, I RECOMMEND THIS HOTEL

    The luggage storage should be for free I had to pay even for 2 hours the application was not working, so I didn't benefit from the insurance

    Perfect Location and Breakfast

    The hotel area is not very close to the city center. It was about a 30 minute walk, but you can use the tram line if you want. And i would like to see a kettle in my room for more comfort. Moreover, in my rich experience as a traveler, this was the first time I had to pay for using luggage storage at a hotel.

    Good price for one night, and great helpful staff

    The twin room (two single beds) should have more space to hang or store our clothes. I would expect a mini refrigerator,too.

    Located close to train station,the breakfast was sufficient and staff was polite.

    Had breakfast in the hotel the first morning. The cold food was all fine but the hot stuff wasn't great.

    Good location just a short walk from Bordeaux Saint Jean station and the tram network. Clean comfortable room. Helpful and welcoming staff.

    Wished they had tea and coffee in the room. Missed my evening cuppa. A lot of work is being done on the streets surrounding the hotel. This did not affect our stay other than the approach to the hotel doesn’t look great. However can already see the street directly outside looks nice with planter boxes etc. Cannot hear any noise from the works in the hotel. Just saying so others are aware when arriving at the hotel.

    Stayed for one night before our train to Paris. Great location -about 5 min walk to the station. Funky hotel. Not big rooms but enough space for one night. All staff excellent. Had a good vibe. Everyone obviously enjoys working together. Very quiet. Comfy bed. Very clean everywhere.

    Great value for basic, but with important amenities and convenience.
    • Leisure trip

    • Twin Room

    The location is relatively safe, but because of construction it's hard to get your bearings at first. Also, there are no ammenities right on the block, so you have to walk a short distance. Google maps walking directions aren't very helpful, because it doesn't recognize that the easiest way to get to the front of the station/tram stop is to walk through the back of the station. Get walking directions to LE FOURNIL DE BELCIER then cross the street and enter the station. you have to use the underground passage to go to the front of the station, but it's easy. By the way, that's a great boulangerie too!

    The location of the hotel is actually quite convenient to the train station once you figure out how to get there. So much of Bordeaux is under construction and the area around the hotel is really torn up, but it's only an 6-8 minute walk to the train station/tram stop. The rooms were clean and had decent storage. They were also fairly quiet. The bedding is standard, but clean and basically comfortable. The room design is efficient, with well placed lighting and outlets. Check in was smooth. We used the common kitchen to cook a meal one night and it was very well stocked, just remember to clean up after yourselves. There is a bar and a separate breakfast room, but we didn't buy breakfast. There is a luggage room, which is locked and a staff member will open it for you, but it's 'self serve' and they don't check your bag, you just go in and take the bag you left. All in all, I would recommend this place for people who aren't looking for fancy, want some cooking ammenities and a great value. Also, the elevators work great - that was important to us, and there is a washing machine in the community kitchen!

    The sound proofing was not good, we were disturbed by doors banging on our level during the night which apart from the noise caused the walls to vibrate. Also it was possible to hear conversations in the corridor. We would have liked tea/coffee making facilities in the room.

    Breakfast was very good, the staff helpful.

    If anything the room could be a bit bigger - but that’s being a bit picky.

    Reception staff spoke many languages including English which suited us. We had Access to a well equipped kitchen with facility to store food/drink in fridges. Also free access to a lounge area at any time and in the evening a bar opened for guests. An excellent breakfast is available. Reasonably close to train station and trams (10 minute walk to both). A small supermarket is a few minutes away as are restaurants and a very good foodcourt serving international foods
